I don't like giving negative reviews, but after such a great walking tour in Bologna, this was such an opposite experience. To begin with, the size of the group, over 30 people, far too many. The guide was obviously very knowledgeable about her subject, but we found that the amount of information we were given was pure overload. We needed to know the main, more concise facts about each sight, but I'm afraid that I found myself switching off and just followed her around without learning anything.
